When Better Call Saul first premiered in 2015, fans were nervous. Its predecessor, Breaking Bad, wasn’t just a good TV show. It was a tour de force, a sharp, insightful crime thriller that raised the bar for television and ushered in an era of antiheroes. It seemed that Better Call Saul couldn’t possibly compete. Seven years later, not only has the legal thriller proven to be a worthy continuation of this universe, but many have argued it’s better than one of the best shows to ever premiere.
After all the lies, schemes, and Cinnabon frosting, it will all be coming to an end tonight. Wondering how you can watch this can’t-miss TV event? We have you covered.
What Time Is Better Call Saul on Tonight?
We’re in for a stressful night. The final ever episode of Better Call Saul premieres tonight (August 15) at 9/8c p.m. on AMC and AMC+. If you have to miss this first showing, don’t worry. There will be an encore at 10/9c p.m.
How Many Episodes Are in Better Call Saul Season 6?
Every other season of this series has been composed of 10 episodes, but not Season 6. No, for this final season, Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould gave us three extra episodes. Is that a commentary on Jimmy (Bob Odenkirk) himself and how he’s overstayed his welcome as a criminal? Maybe! Regardless, grab your popcorn and maybe some whiskey as you prepare to watch Episode 13, “Saul Gone.”

Will Better Call Saul Season 6 Episode 13 Be Available for Next Day Streaming on Netflix?
If you’re based in the United States, Better Call Saul Season 6 isn’t expected to come to Netflix anytime soon. In the past when it came to this show, AMC preferred to keep seasons off Netflix until a new season was set to premiere. For instance, Season 5 finished its run in 2020 but didn’t land on Netflix until 2022. But, as we all know, Season 6 will be the series’ last. That means there’s a chance this season will be coming to Netflix sooner rather than later.
But if you’re not based in America, you don’t have to worry about any of this. Netflix subscribers in United Kingdom, France, India, and over 30 other international regions will have access to new episodes of Better Call Saul thanks to next-day streaming. That means starting on Tuesday, August 16, you can stream “Saul Gone.”
What Happened in Better Call Saul‘s Latest Episode?
We’ve seen Jimmy evolve into his most flamboyant form thanks to Saul Goodman, and we’ve seen him get into some really nasty fights over the years. But we’ve never really seen him lose control. That’s what happens in “Waterworks.” After showing Jimmy’s phone call with Kim (Rhea Seehorn) in “Breaking Bad”, the episode finally explained why Jimmy lost his temper. All of that pay phone banging was because Kim told Jimmy to turn himself in.
That set Jimmy off. He doubled down on his identity theft scam with Jeff (Pat Healy) and Buddy (Max Bickelhaup). But even they left him to dry when it came to a mark who had been diagnosed with cancer. After cheekily telling them that just because someone has cancer that doesn’t mean they aren’t an asshole, Jimmy barely escaped. But for all of his lying, he was no match for Marion (Carol Burnett) and Ask Jeeves. Sweet Marion discovered that Gene was really Saul Goodman, aka James McGill, aka a wanted con artist. During their confrontation, Jimmy had a moment where he could have stopped her from calling the police. But for whatever reason, he let her do it. “Waterworks” ended with Jimmy once again on the run.
